Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. I received my Masters from Nova Southeastern University and have been practicing for over 10 years. I have worked with diverse populations throughout the years including children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I have been granted with the opportunity to experience with my clients the challenges, hardships, but most importantly the resiliency to overcome adversity.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I engage in ongoing self-reflection and professional development to enhance my therapeutic skills and effectiveness. My commitment to personal growth ensures that I remain true and authentic in my therapeutic work. This self-awareness allows me to approach therapy with genuine empathy, creating a safe and nonjudgmental space where my clients feel heard, understood, and respected.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Psychodynamic
I have been using psychodynamic therapy in my practice for the past 12 years, helping clients explore unconscious processes and unresolved conflicts that may be influencing their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Through the therapeutic relationship, we will work collaboratively to foster self-awareness, emotional insight, and personal growth, which will help you live a more fulfilling life.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have been using Cognitive Behavior therapy in my practice for the past 12 years, helping clients identify and challenge dysfunctional thought patterns and behaviors to promote positive changes in emotions and actions. We will use CBT to work collaboratively to address specific problems or symptoms by targeting irrational beliefs, negative self-talk, and maladaptive behaviors. We will develop coping strategies and promote positive changes in your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
Trauma-Focused CBT
My experience with trauma-focused cognitive behavior therapy has been helping children, adolescents, and adults process and cope with the effects of traumatic events, such as abuse, death of a loved one, or accidents. During the course of treatment, I provide psychoeducation about trauma, guide you through relaxation and grounding exercises, offer cognitive restructuring techniques, and assist in developing coping strategies for managing trauma-related symptoms. I prioritize creating a safe and supportive environment for you to explore your experiences and work towards healing and recovery.
On average, Florida Blue clients pay $0-$30
